Tracing an Image Using Adobe Animate
Your first step is to create new Adobe Animate File. Then follow these steps:
1. Import the picture you would like to trace.
2. Add a new Layer, Insert > Timeline > Layer.
3. You may want to lock the bottom layer with the picture in it. After you lock it, make sure you are in the top layer, or you won’t be able to draw.
4. Select your pencil tool.Make sure you're in INK mode.
5. Start tracing the image. Occasionally hide the lower picture to see a clearer version of what you have drawn.
6. Use the Paint Bucket tool to colorize your drawing.
7. When done, hide the original image and select your drawing. Click on Modify > Convert to Symbol.
